Does anyone know if these mods can be done with other similar sensors as well? Like SmartThings’ own door/temp sensor?

43

@pakmanwg Is it possible to update the DH so that the default sensor function is contact sensor? (avoiding the situation when ST changes DH automatically to secondary applicable DH. Currently if u dont select the sensor function manually in settings, the sensor is useless.)

Hi sumya
The contact sensor is the default settings. Did you see somethings like this when you get into the device in the app

If not, what do you see?

45

I see that but in the settings->sensor function is blank, when the DH switches. Unless I select “contact sensor” in settings->sensor function, it does not provide notification.

Hi sumya

You are right. I fixed it and uploaded new version V01.07. Try it out to see if you still have issues.

47

Ok great. will try and let u know if there are any issues.

@pakmanwg can you add CO Detector to the list of available functions in the DTH?

I a couple of interconnected Kidde combination Smoke & Carbon Monoxide detectors that are hard-wired. I was planning wiring both the SM120x smoke relay and the CO120x carbon monoxide relay to the combo detectors, then wire each of the relays to a separate Visonic sensor. That way one sensor can report on smoke an the other sensor can report on CO.

Hi

I uploaded a new version which support CO Detector, v01.08, try it out and let me know if there is problem.

These devices just went on sale again for $12. I was thinking about trying a couple as leak sensors. I went to look up the instructions, and all of the images aren’t working correctly on github. The pages just have the broken image box, and clicking on the files themselves just shows the file names.

I don’t seem to have problem myself. I can see all the images.
Can you try to see if you have the same problem with other device handler from other people in github?
e.g. Sonoff SV device handler?

Sorry, apparently it’s my work filter. Github completely works except for images on raw.githubusercontent.com. And since our network people are completely incompetent, it just fails instead of giving a blocked page or anything.
